What is the answer to 2/3 divided by 1/4

In a race, a triathlete runs 1/3 of the total distance, cycles 2/5 of the total distance, and swims the remaining distance. He s

4500 meters. You find this by adding 1/3 and 2/5 which equals 11/15. This means that the remaining 4/15 is 1200 meters long. Divide 1200 by 4 in order to find the distance per 1/15 and you get 300. Multiply 300 with 15 to get the total distance of the race.

g A lawyer commutes daily from his suburban home to his midtown office. The average time for a one-way trip is 24 minutes, with

rodikova [14]

Answer:

a) 85.31%

b) 56 minutes

c) 17 days

d) 0.1721

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make the calculations easier, let's <em>standardize the curve</em> by doing the change

$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

where $\mu$ is the average trip-time and $\sigma$ the standard deviation and

P(X≤ t) is the probability that the trip takes less than t minutes.

a)

Here we are looking for the value of P(X>20).

For X=20 we have Z = (20-24)/3.8 = -1.05

So, we want the area under the standard normal curve for Z > -1.05

that we can compute either using a table or a computer and we find this area equals 0.8531

So, he arrives late to work 85.31% of the times.

(See picture 1 attached)

b)

In this case we are looking for a value t of time such that

P(X≥ t) = 20% = 0.2

So, we are seeking a value Z such that the area under the normal curve to the left of Z equals 0.2

By using a table or a computer we find Z = 0.842

(See picture 2 attached)

By inserting this value in the equation on standardization

$0.842=\frac{X-24}{38}\Rightarrow X=38*0.842+24=55.996$

So 20% of the longest trips takes 55.996 ≅ 56 minutes

c)

Since the average of days he arrives late is 85.31%, it is expected that in 20 work days he arrives late 85.31% of 20, which equals 17 days.

d)

Since the probability that he does not arrive late is 1-0.8531 = 0.1469 and the probability of arriving early is independent of the previous trip,

the probability of arriving early n days in a row is

0.1496*0.1496*...*0.1496 n times and

the probability of being early most than 10 trips in 20 days is

$(0.1469)+(0.1469)^2+(0.1469)^3+...+(0.1469)^10=0.1721$

Find the sum of the first 8 terms of the following sequence. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary

AlexFokin [52]

The sum of the first 8 terms is 2.51 to the nearest hundredth

Step-by-step explanation:

In the geometric sequence there is a constant ratio between each two consecutive terms

The formula of the sum of n terms of a geometric sequence is:

$S_{n}=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}$ , where

a is the first term
r is the constant ratio between the consecutive terms

∵ The sequence is 6 , -5 , 25/6 , .............

∵ -5 ÷ 6 = $\frac{-5}{6}$

∵ $\frac{25}{6}$ ÷ -5 = $\frac{-5}{6}$

- There is a constant ratio between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is a geometric sequence

∵ The first term is 6

∴ a = 6

∵ The constant ratio is $\frac{-5}{6}$

∴ r = $\frac{-5}{6}$

∵ We need to find the sum of 8 terms

∴ n = 8

- Substitute the values of a, r and n in the rule above

∴ $S_{8}=\frac{6[1-(\frac{-5}{6})^{8}]}{1-(\frac{-5}{6})}$

∴ $S_{8}=2.511595508$

- Round it to the nearest hundredth

∴ $S_{8}=2.51$

The sum of the first 8 terms is 2.51 to the nearest hundredth
